[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]- Stay away from complaining or negative co-workers. While it may seem validating (they totally agree that the office/department/boss sucks!), it only amplifies your negativity and brings on burnout.

- Seek out colleagues who can talk about things that are NOT work-related. Make it a game - first one to bring up work buys lunch next time.

- [b]Speaking if lunch, get outside the office every day, rain or shine. Even if it’s just down to the corner and back (preferably further.) [/b] Change of venue, sun, air, stretching your legs is all good.

- Leave work at the office. Not just literally. But practice not thinking about or dwelling on work-related thoughts when you’re outside work hours. Dreading or stressing about upcoming events or ruminating on past events are both ways to cause burnout. Consider it a meditation practice. When your mind wanders to work, notice it and put the thought in a folder marked “for tomorrow, during the work day.”  Then LET IT GO. [/quote]
